301 redirect with .htaccess - redirect if www is included or not

I've got the following 301 redirect in my .htaccess

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING}  ^$
RewriteRule ^old-site\.com,$ http://www.new-site.com/? [R=301,NE,NC,L]

If i visit

old-site.com

I am redirected correctly.

However, if I visit www.old-site.com, then it doesn't work.
Is there a way of effectively ignoring the www

Edit

There are several entries like this...

for example:

www.old-site.com/page-a-242.html to www.new-site.com/page-a

RewriteRule ignores the domain, so your first rule could be just 

RewriteRule ^$ http://www.new-site.com/? [R,L]

For the other specific mappings you might use RewriteMap. See txt: Plain text maps for details on how to use it.

The drawback with RewriteMap is, that it can only be used in the main server config or in a virtual host environment.
